Amnesh Goel, Sukanya Ray, Nidhi Chandra . Intelligent Traffic Light System to Prioritized Emergency Purpose Vehicles Based on Wireless Sensor Network. International Journal of Computer Applications. 40, 12 ( February 2012), 36-39. DOI=10.5120/5019-7352
The use of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has proved to be a very beneficial in the design of adaptive and dynamic traffic light intersection system that will minimize the waiting time of vehicles and also manage the traffic load at the intersection adaptively. In this paper, we propose an adaptive traffic intersection system based on Wireless Sensor Network where the traffic light of one intersection can communicate with the traffic light of the next neighboring intersections and traffic clearance will be prioritized for special vehicles with the help of sensors.
